Serve

For even the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve...

Mark 10:45

Sunrise Ministries is a community of people who serve. Our volunteers greet newcomers and regulars alike, make our coffee and offer donuts, build up our kids, run the soundboard, play in the worship band, and help our students. These are just a few ways you can get involved with the life of Sunrise. Read about all of the different service opportunities at Sunrise below and let us know if you would like to learn more or start volunteering! If you’d like to get involved but don't see something here that catches your eye, let us know, and we’ll help find the right spot for you.
